Hydraulic buffers at Glasgow Central Station. While they could not stop a full-speed train, they can still and absorb the energy of the multi-tonne Pendelinos that service the West Coast main line. Then again, it's not like Pendelinos go that fast to begin with....

37401 rests at Olympia after The Charter had arrived at the Station 8 minutes early.

another pair knit for greedy little me... these ones were done in reynolds blizzard on size 15 dpns with no other alteration to the original pattern... they are super soft, but almost TOO soft as the cables lose their structure after a while. but they match my hat! (urchin beret by twinkle)

Taken at the STEAM Museum in Swindon.

Remnants of the old railway line are still visible on the Coastal Link path along the River Adur in Shoreham. I liked the warm rusty colour on this axle and buffer in this evening's light.

Buffers from the old railway system servicing Erith Pier.

The headstock of R 707, showing the buffers with the VR style scoop out of them (not sure why that was), the knuckle coupler which presumably swings out of the way to reveal a hook for the link-and-hook coupling method, and the class and number plates as well as the cowcatcher.

took these photos while sitting at my office desk (which overlooks SW Stark Street between 3rd and 4th Aves). this is just some of the people driving in the buffered bike lane and all were shot in a 40 min. period.

Did a full 3 step cut and polish on a close friend's 1999 Honda Civic. This is the original 19 year old OEM paint that has seen little to no paint correction or major protection over the years. Managed to remove the majority of swirling, and defects in the paint only leaving behind the absolute deepest of scratches that unfortunately went through the clear coat and the paint.
